We had a bittersweet dinner at Laurel and Sage. We just found out that they are going to close next month (at the end of March) when their 5 year lease runs out. This has been one of our favorite restaurants but apparently they have been losing money the last few months, (although they were slammed tonight), and did not want to commit to another 5 years. They are just not making any business during the week (like most suburban restaurants), and the lack of a liquor license doesn’t help. So next month will be our last supper
We started off with an outstanding seared hamachi with avocado, cilantro emulsion, and sriracha. For entrees I had the lamb shank with polenta, king oyster mushrooms, and cabbage and Mrs. P had the sea bass with the sauce on the side to keep the skin crispy. It all went great with an outstanding 2013 R&B Malbec.
